From: Jonathan McDowell <noodles@meta.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.19-rc1 commit e74b96d77da9eb5ee1b603c937c2adab5134a04b category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/15189 CVE: CVE-2026-45949 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- The HW RNG core allows for manual selection of which RNG device to use, but does not allow for no device to be enabled. It may be desirable to do this on systems with only a single suitable hardware RNG, where we need exclusive access to other functionality on this device. In particular when performing TPM firmware upgrades this lets us ensure the kernel does not try to access the device.
